Then, as if he remembered that after all she was ill and must be humoured, he began, while her bosom still rose and fell rapidly, to talk with an assumption that nothing much had happened. "Come, sit down again, Bessie. The tea's in the pot and I'll have it ready in a couple of jiffs. What a ridiculous little girl you are, to take on like that!... And I say, listen!
I could manage well enough, however, if someone from the smithy would come and push the bike." "Tell you what," Dick suggested; "if you hop in and look after Mollie, Jerry and I will push the bike to the smithy; we'll be after you in two jiffs." The stranger looked at Dick with a smile and a slight lift of his eyebrows. "You are very trusting, young man.
"Right-o!" replied the policeman. "I'll be with you in two jiffs." Stane entered the cabin to prepare Helen. As he did so the girl looked up from the stove. "Is he the owner of our palace?" "No; he is an old Oxford acquaintance of mine, who is now in the Mounted Police." "Then we shall not suffer eviction?" she laughed, and to Stane it seemed there was an odd note of relief in her voice.

"Is it ready?" "Yes. Waiting." "Are you going to your office now?" "Yes." Edwin hesitated. "It won't take a minute, I suppose. I'll slip along in two jiffs. I'll be there almost as soon as you are."
Edwin demanded suddenly of Maggie. "What? Clara's? It's in the outhouse." "I can run him up to the station in two jiffs in that." "Oh yes! Do!" said George. "You must. And then lift me into the carriage!" The notion was accepted.
Roscoe has gone up to Tonghoo about oil; the MacNab is dining at the Pegu Club with one of his Big Pots and talking Flotilla and finance." "All right, I'll be ready in two jiffs you won't forget the coat?" "Not likely! We will taxi down to the end of Dalhousie Street, and into the bazaar about half-past nine o'clock, and then proceed on foot. I am taking two constables both armed."
Carefully opening her box, she drew from it one of the plates, touched it with her fingers to find which side was coated with the gelatine preparation, placed it in the camera and turned to leave the closet. "Now, I'll have a picture in just about two jiffs," she said, and pushed against the door. To her surprise, it did not open. Another push, with the same result.
